I saw Hendrix perform at HemisFair Arena in San Antonio on May 10, 1970. In September he died. I was 21. Yeah.

They don't make bands lke that any more.

Hendrix, Joplin, Canned Heat and anything from that era. I'm 62 so to me that's where it's at.

88XLH1200----youre right about that.Anything by motorhead is a good one.I try not to get sucked into music threads but its always hard for me not to.Im a sucker for them.--It always depends on the locale and my mood of what song might pop into my head.....Motorhead is always good.

Oh yeah, I worked the last Hendrix shows including the Atlanta Pop festival in Macon. Cool guy, ought to have heard him play acoustic backstage in the warm-up room. Reincarnation of Robert Johnson...

Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower is a good cover, if you're into covers.

No way will there ever be radio waves bouncing my machines.The pipes spew all the music my ears want to hear.No doubt there is music that inspires my builds most of it comes from AC/DC.Do love blues music for that matter listen to all kinds depending on the mood.Some music is just right when looking down upon a honey looking up.
